first buds and blooms

Good morning and happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. Here in California the weather was absolutely gorgeous - definitely the most beautiful spring weekend ever! I heard it was similar spring weather near and far over much of the nation - hopefully in your back yard along with mine.

I am sad to say my weekend of photography was upstaged by a wicked migraine I woke up with Saturday morning. However I still took advantage of the amazing weather outside. I took my medication, poured a nice diet Coke, and relaxed on the trampoline in the sunshine most of the day! I will not complain!

And as I felt a bit better I took a few snapshots of my roses that were finally in full bloom. I had been following the very first pink bud as it progressed, and here it is for you to see - finally blooming so beautifully along with all the other buds that are now in abundance. So lovely!  



Does this look like one little happy rose or what! Happy happy joy joy :)

  3. I miss my rose bushes, so thank you for giving me an up close and personal glimpse of your beautiful budding rose. It is perfect.
    Sorry about the bummer migraine. The word verification today sounds like medication that would take care of that for you: dxjcquit. Try it. :-)
